WOW That looks good... Great pumpkin season here too.
We cut five big Kents or Japs whatever you call them this morning
And have more coming too all shapes and sizes, so we wont be paying no $3.98 kg again.
Well not for a long while...I hope you get plenty more too....Cheers...MM. |

| Mantis, that looks fantastic! Do you mean to say that there are 15 pumpkins on ONE vine? |

| That pumkpin doesn't look like it got lots of seeds. What do you do with all these pumpkins? How long can you keep them for? I guess you can probably freeze pumkin soup. |

There are actually two vines. They are a very meaty pumpkin with very small seed cavities. I think I worked out last year that they yeild about 70% flesh to 30% waste.
Not sure how long they will keep but I guess I am going to find out eh. |

| Hi Oz, your pumpkins look great. I haven't planted any this year, but those tommy seeds you sent me have just started ripening the last couple of weeks. So far the Black Krim are the best for taste and size. Regards Roughie |

| Good to hear Roughie. Black Krims are a good tomato for sure. |
